Multiple Fibroadenomas

I am 21 and I found a lump in my breast and got referred to the breast clinic. Once there, they did a mammogram and said I had 2 fibroadenomas. I am currently in a lot of pain surrounding the areas and in my armpit. I've been struggling to put my arm down because of the pain. I would really like to get a second opinion and a biopsy done because I'm still so worried about the amount of pain I'm getting and how uncomfortable I am and worried about what it is.  Has anyone experienced this and was misdiagnosed?? or have you been able to ask for a biopsy and second opinion at the doctors and they have agreed to do it even though you've had a mammogram. 
 

 

  • Hi mollgrace1,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. If your pain doesn't go away and you continue to feel concerned, you could always talk things through again with your doctor. You can always ask for a second opinion if you feel this would help.

    Otherwise, I hope things will ease soon for you and if anyone here has any similar experience or advice to offer then hopefully they'll be along soon.

    Wishing you all the best,
